Ebay item 10/11/20

www.ebay.com/itm/1989-Jaguar-XJS/284041397253

Current bid: $2,011 reserve not met 10 bids 6 days left in auction, seller caragman, 43k miles.

Seller's description:

Incredible 3 owner 1989 Jaguar XJS Convertible. British Racing Green w/Tan Leather interior. 5.3L 12cyl w/auto trans, 43,134 miles, Clean CarFax.

We purchased this car in Feb of 2013 with 40,914 miles. In the last 7 1/2 years we've only added 2220 miles. ALL fenders, hood, trunk lid and doors have orig factory vin tags. Orig paint (majority) and interior. I did have the front seats recovered in the proper leather and had all the wood refinished and had the center console replaced with cup holders.

Since purchasing we've done the following to bring this example to a level that we believe sets it apart from 99.99% of all other XJS' currently available;

1) Rechromed Honeycomb Wheels w/Cooper Tires

2) Also comes with a beautiful set of Dayton Wire Wheels w/Spinners on Red Line Tires from Coker

3) Nardi Wood Steering Wheel

4) CoCo Mats

5) Front & Rear Sport Springs and Bilstein Shocks from American Power Train

6) V12 Performance: Quick Cat Air Intake / Starter upgrade / Fuel Line Hoses / Front & Rear Sway Bar Upgrade Kit / Twin Electric Fan System / Radiator Cooling Hose Kit / Cooling Fan Switch / Aluminum Radiator

7) All 4 Catalytic Converters Replaced

8) Upgraded Stereo System

9) Car Cover

10) New Interstate Battery installed in 2019

ALL receipts documenting parts & service come with the car as do the original owners manuals and pouch.

ALL factory original take off parts come with the vehicle.

In total we have spent over 45,000 on the above plus service making this car what it is today. Runs and handles beautifully. With the upgraded cooling system and alternator it runs cool and charges as it should.

As mentioned above, the majority of the paint is original and does show some wear, although it is minor for a 32 year old car.

While we've done our best to minimize oil leaks, it does still drip a SMALL amount of oil. The fluid reservoir for the power top motor also leaks. These are the only 2 gremlins we haven't fully accomplished fixing. This IS a used car and I strongly encourage a proper PPI prior to purchase. I've done my best to describe what I believe are the +'s and -'s of this car. The ONLY reason we've decided to sell is that we just don't drive it enough to justify keeping it. It NEEDS to be driven more than 122 miles per month!
